I know I have said this before but I am certain that our issues this season are a mixture of a couple of. Aging players and a reaction to last season

The amount of games they played was unreal -
Utd have already been afforded that excuse and we are basically in February in terms of last season (due to WC delays)

there was a shorter summer due to WC a promotional tour and a WC

so I think we were just shot
But we shall see :)

what helps is getting more players back for and sadly less games per week.

when we have 5 or 6 midfielders and 5 or 5 forwards to pick from then they are going to be a bit perkier.


but nunez is vital.
 
Can’t read into anything that Henry says abiut transfer spend.

Hardlh gonna come out and say this summer? Oh yeah we’ve got £500mnwerr throwing at players cos we’re desperate.
 
We bought lots of decent players under FSG, sometimes for pretty high fees. Alison, VVD, Nunez.
I think we'll get some decent players in this summer, but just don't expect Chelsea levels of spending, that's all they're saying and I'm alright with that, because I don't think we need as many players as some may do.

They're just managing expectations.

We don't need any for the front 3 (who are generally the most expensive), we certainly need a couple in midfield and 1 or 2 in defence (still don't really have an option at RB).

It is quoted. ‘We are seeking investment into the club to improve the squad’

based on yesterday’s statement, I read as we will invest in one or two big names by selling a small stake in our club and the rest will be business as usual.

Bellingham is coming <whistle>
 
Darwin vs Harry Kane ..

The only metric Darwin is falling behind is conversion rate. Once he gets that sorted ...

If he gets that sorted.

Think we all expect him to start banging them in as we get better, he gets better understanding and he matures/calms down slightly.

His record for someone constantly labelled a flop is impressive. Near enough a goal every other game.

Just needs to make sure he does start converting those big chances
 
If i were a betting man I would but a small stake on mount singing a new contract with chelsea.

I think this is all merely him using media to put pressure on to get what he wants.

Mount is a big fish in the small pond with the fans there. they have to have some john terry type there.

The only thing that makes it a bit more interesting is that he's not first name on the team sheet anymore.

Personally I think klopp would love to have mount. I think a lot of chelsea fans haven't a clue about football and tactics and klopp would take mount and make him into a no 8
the press and work rate are frankly his best attributes and what klopp wants.

Bellingham at 130 odd million is just a bit rich for us and the question has to be balance here.

If you lot had mount Bajcetic and bellingham as midfield would you be really happy? I think you'd find something to ****ing moan about as per.

Don’t think they would be moaning just suggesting improvements to the team
Lmao <laugh>:bandit:

in all seriousness I just can’t and haven’t seen us getting Bellingham
We would only break him anyway - I like it when we find these players like Robbo, Kuyt :) Gakpo, even Suarez to a degree
Seems less pressure
As I keep saying I trust the team to sort it all out

I think competing with City is virtually impossible if you have injuries because the depth of £50-70 mil players at City is unreal

Our boys need a couple of tweets and a good rest then it’s onwards :) :)
